Monarch of Evernight

unexpected calm over the next few days. Humans hunters and adventurers no longer dare to enter the wilderness besieged by the dark tide, and sudden changes are alarming. Many fled overnight to the heartland of human-controlled areas, but brave speculators wanted to see if there was a chance, so they chose to stay in cities like Blackcurtain County.

Likewise, the Dark Race is stubborn and awaits both sides.

Inside the Empire, news of the Iron Curtain caused a storm. It was also the first semi-public revelation of the Iron Curtain by the Empire and the formal mobilization of military and ethnic participation. As the blood battle progresses, the scope for mobilization will be further expanded.

In the eyes of most, this symbolizes the growing strength of the empire and the opening up of new battlefields. In the eyes of visionaries, however, there is more to see. The empire's initiative to wage a bloody battle with the Dark Race is in fact far-reaching, not only in demonstrating force to the Dark Race, but also in allowing the great families to show off their martial arts within the Empire. Blood warfare, as its name suggests, can be brutal, and the valves, the regiments, and even the imperial chambers, have performed well in this bloody battle, and the strength of the military is a direct reflection of the family's superiority.

After this war, the ever-changing ranking of the valves of the world is about to move.

Various valves who have received imperial summons are naturally sworn, but many small families who have not received summons orders are also angry, so try to get a summons order as well. Many small families who did not have the possibility of obtaining a summons, but who had ambitions, chose to be attached to the great family.

Even if they have no ambition, this time the reward is strong enough to motivate them.

The “Jidu Purple Garden” in Zhao Province, West Pole City, is much busier than in the past, and the attendants and escorts come and go to organize various equipment. In the back of the small courtyard, there is living water, and on a not cold afternoon, the white smoke springs are actually hot springs. At this time, the spreading white smoke surrounded by purple mist, Zhao Jundu's knee sat by the water, part by part is maintaining the “blue sky”.

There are only a few people who dare to disturb him at this time because of the very mild footsteps coming from outside the courtyard door. Zhao Jundu raised his head and came to be Zhao Junhong.

Zhao Junhong was rarely conceited, but did not speak at the moment.

Zhao Jundu jammed the "Bishui Blade” into the slot under the barrel, then stood up and broke the silence first. "Brother Er is back, go inside and sit down.” He knows exactly why Zhao Junhong came.

Yan Yun Zhao, as one of the four valves, received the information before being officially ordered to convene the Imperial Palace. It took several days for the elders and secretaries in the valves to come up with a list of battles to be fought. In this list, the elite of the younger generation of Zhao Valve almost leaned out, with Zhao Yuxue as his rightful deputy and Zhao Junhong as his deputy, leading the battle, but the most prestigious Zhao Jundu and Zhao Ruoxi were not among them.

This arrangement is not entirely based on the privacy of the Duke of Yan and the Duke of Phantom. In Chenggong's Zhao Weihuang lineage, the boss Zhao Junsu became the first to become famous. At this moment, the rank has exceeded the 13th level of the warrior. Entering the Iron Curtain will attract the attention of the Heavenly Ghost. Going is tantamount to finding death. Though he is also a warlord, neither talent, strength nor hope can compare to his second brother Zhao Junhong, who did not advance to the rank of warlord.

As for Zhao Ruoxi, it is the treasure of Zhao Valve Township. The special circumstances do not require this war effort to be added to the flowers. Zhao Jundu is recognized as the first person in the future in the valve. What is needed now is to nurture the nuclear force and lay a strong foundation, and no longer have to prove himself in the blood war. Moreover, this list also implicitly reflects Zhao's consistent arrogance: I, Zhao Valve Yingli, do not need Zhao Jundu to come forward, have been able to compress the world and counteract the three valves.

However, after Zhao Jundu got the news, he went against the normal state, demanded to go to war, and eventually replaced Zhao Junhong. Zhao Junhong was enlisting the rebels in the mainland at the time. When he returned, the list of battles had been reported to the Imperial Ministry of Military Affairs and had become final.

Zhao Jundu personally poured tea for Zhao Junhong after entering the house, and did not turn around to wipe the corner. He said directly: "It would be better if Second Brother was sitting in town at home. ”

Zhao Junhong smiled bitterly and took over the sharp thin tire porcelain cup. He turned around in his palm, or asked: “Why? Because of Thousand Nights? ”

“It's not just him, I want to see what an iron curtain is.” After a pause, Zhao Jundu smiled coldly: “Now the empire is floating in a dark stream, many people are not comfortable with my Zhao Valve. I also heard a lot of wind, saying that I, Zhao Valve, are now in the position, but only by the skirt. This bloody battle just killed me! Anyone who disobeys, under the iron curtain, just kills together. ”

Zhao Junhong suddenly said: “I am going to close the door and promote the warlord directly. ”

Zhao Jundu was about to speak. Zhao Junhong waved his hand: “Don't worry, the water has reached the canal, my silver sword refers to the ninth sword qi has been completed. When I become a warrior, come under the Iron Curtain and kill a hall of fame together! ”

Zhao Jundo nodded and Zhao Junhong reached over his shoulder and pressed hard. Neither of the brothers said any more superfluous words.

Just returning to Dark Stream City at night, he spent the past two days in the wilderness, patrolling between Dark Stream City and Silver Stream Gorge with little sign of the Dark Race. The area beneath the iron curtain, apart from life, is particularly silent and the dark forces are active, and no abnormalities are currently visible.

Thousand nights called Song Hu, went to the city wall to inspect the defense of Black River City. After Wei Pai Yen's renovation, the city defense of Black River City is unquestionably strong in the three or four line ethnic cities of Yongnight. Looking at the whole Three River County, it is well deserved first, but trying to strengthen another level is a major project.

At the core of the urban defense system in large and medium-sized cities are power towers and large defensive weapons that rely on power towers. Both of these things are expensive, demanding resources and technicians, and the dark fires are not affordable for the time being.

That is why it was decided to recruit a large number of mercenaries and adventurers to fill the city's defensive vacuum, adhering to the human naval tactics that have prevailed throughout the night. Fortunately, after the Dark Fire's annexation of the Seventh Division and its westward expansion, the current material reserves are still adequate. But if the black tide lasts for months, that's another thing.

Call Song Hu for a thousand nights and visit the city defense together, preparing to delineate some less important areas for the mercenary recruits to defend. After visiting half the city's defenses, he asked: "How many soldiers have we recruited now? ”

“With more than 3,000 people, I'm afraid military spending would be unaffordable. ”

Thousand Nights slightly frowned: “Just over 3,000? I'm afraid not. ”

He also had some rare materials from Andorian space, not to worry too much about military spending for the time being, but the Army of Everlasting Night fought with war and invested somewhat to take into account the value of the defense zone. Thousand Nights is the truth about the Iron Curtain from Zhao Yuxue. Knowing that this war is dangerous, Song Hu has not yet been able to have such confidentiality with the smell, so when arranging the conscription, it is inevitable that there will be some restraint.

And I thought for a while, and I said, "It's okay. Someone's going to send the troops. ”

Song Hu's expression was slightly unnatural. I saw him for a thousand nights and smiled. “Don't worry, it's not to the seven dignitaries. ”

Song Hu immediately looked a little embarrassed, coughed a few times and asked: "Where did the new troops come from? ”

At present, the onset of the black tide is not yet visible as a clear danger, but it is the people's psychology that has the greatest impact. Urban natives rarely migrate, but hunters and adventurers everywhere stay only with boldness, and the influx into the interior is not a small number, making the already abundant people nervous.

After a thousand nights of watching Song Hu obviously lose his voice, he turned his head and did not ask, "From other Expeditionary Army units in the county, they will provide troops and military expenses, although not much, but at least supplement them. ”

“Expeditionary? If they don't stab us in the middle of nowhere, they'll be fine. Will they back up? ”

Thousand Nights smiled: “Don't forget, this is a perpetual night. ”

Everlasting Night is not the territory of the Empire and, with the exception of a few giant fortresses, it is impossible to expect the army to send troops to recover once the land is lost. No one can say for sure how long the black tide will now last and what will happen during this period. Like Black River City, the perpetual night defense area is actually the private property of the division chiefs. If the Black River City in front cannot hold up, the neighboring war zones and cities are next exposed to the Dark Race Front.

There are no eternal enemies in front of the interests.

After that, head to the next city defense section for a thousand nights.

The next place he was going to visit was the key point of the city's defense, with a turret built.

Old crossbow guns had been placed on the turret, relying on the power of the machine to throw crossbows at the enemy. It has now been replaced by a fortress gun, which is decades behind decades-old, although several times stronger than the original centuries-old crossbow gun, compared to the fortress gun in the Empire Front position.

There are a total of four fortress guns in Black River City, which Wei Bo was able to obtain when he was in office, relying on the resources of the Wei family. At the time of the Great War, Weber's turtle shrink tactics relied on these four fortress guns.

It is at the core of the Black River City defense. Naturally, it cannot be ignored at night. You can only rest assured if you see it with your own eyes. However, when the turret was far away, he was surprised. Dozens of people on the turret were busy, and the fortress shell had been removed, revealing parts of the machine parts inside, and it appeared that many of the sub-parts had been removed.

Fortress guns can be different from ordinary chariots or trucks, and their structure is unusually complex and completely out of the reach of ordinary pilots. Especially for ease of maintenance, many of the pieces inside the fortress are sealed together to form modules. Repairs are typically replaced by the entire module together, so that repairs can be accomplished in the absence of a senior pilot, at a high cost. Even if only one widget is broken inside the module, replace it entirely.

Looking at the night, it was seen that the fortress gun had not only dismantled several modules, but even some of them had been opened. Know that such modules have anti-disassembly measures in order to prevent imitation by major arms dealers and will completely damage the device components in the modules as long as they are not opened according to a specific method.

These modules were dismantled and apparently the gun was obsolete.

Surprised, jumped to the turret, “Stop it! What are you doing!? ”

Most of the guns are filled with craftsmen and technicians I've known for thousands of nights. One of them raised his head and it was Buzz!
